(Video): Cole Palmer scores unbelievable chip to put Chelsea ahead

Chelsea are back ahead against Wolves – although they don’t really deserve it.

Things were reaching fever pitch as the home team took a set piece at one end, but in a flash the Blues had raced up the other end.

It all started with a long boot forward from Robert Sanchez. Nicolas Jackson was able to flick the ball back inside as Chelsea raced forward, and rather than take a touch, Cole Palmer clipped a gorgeous half volley over the retreating goalkeeper. That is a goal of the season contender without a doubt.
